Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Fatir 35:39

Word by word

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَكُمْ خَلَـٰٓئِفَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ فَمَن كَفَرَ فَعَلَيْهِ كُفْرُهُۥ ۖ وَلَا يَزِيدُ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ كُفْرُهُمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا مَقْتًا ۖ وَلَا يَزِيدُ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ كُفْرُهُمْ إِلَّا خَسَارًا

It is He who has made you successors upon the earth. And whoever disbelieves - upon him will be [the consequence of] his disbelief. And the disbelief of the disbelievers does not increase them in the sight of their Lord except in hatred; and the disbelief of the disbelievers does not increase them except in loss.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

ثم قال : ( هو الذي جعلكم خلائف في الأرض ) أي : يخلف قوم لآخرين قبلهم ، وجيل لجيل قبلهم ، كما قال : ( ويجعلكم خلفاء الأرض ) [ النمل : 62 ] ( فمن كفر فعليه كفره ) أي : فإنما يعود وبال ذلك على نفسه دون غيره ، ( ولا يزيد الكافرين كفرهم عند ربهم إلا مقتا ) أي : كلما استمروا على كفرهم أبغضهم الله ، وكلما استمروا فيه خسروا أنفسهم وأهليهم يوم القيامة ، بخلاف المؤمنين فإنهم كلما طال عمر أحدهم وحسن عمله ، ارتفعت درجته ومنزلته في الجنة ، وزاد أجره وأحبه خالقه وبارئه رب العالمين ، [ فسبحان المقدر المدبر رب العالمين ] .
